That time of the month again. Time to set the monthly goals.
It's probably not the best day to do goal setting as I'm feeling a bit meh. I'm not sure if it's the wind or the change in seasons, of the never-ending lockdown. but I've been feeling meh. Creating things helps, but it's not good for getting things done at work.
Anyway, this too shall pass.
And here's how I went last month:
Read four books.
Done. I finished the following books:
- Matt Haig's The Midnight Library
- Kiley Reid's Such a Fun Age
- Andrew Sean Greer's Less
- Larissa Behrendt's After Story
- Sarah Krasnostein's The Trauma Cleaner.
10,000 steps a day (or an accumulated 310,000 steps over the month)
Nearly. I badly twisted my knee late last month, and what with lockdown and some pretty yucky weather, I missed the goal by about 30,000 steps. But, this is not a bad result over all. Didn't raise a cracker for Breast Cancer research, but I didn't advertise it either.
Finish the Masons' books
Yeah, nah. Maybe this weekend. Not having a printer doesn't help either. However, my tax is prepared and ready for Thursday when I have a virtual appointment with the Tax Accountants.
And have a happy birthday.
I had a lovely quiet birthday, thank you very much.
And goals for September:
Read four books.
I really like this goal. It keeps me reading (and listening to audiobooks)
10000 steps a day
I'll put this down again. Now that the weather is getting better and I'm a lot better mentally if I get out for a walk for an hour, consider it a necessity.
Make a new dish
Heaven knows when we will be let ut of lockdown, but I think making a meal which doesn't come from the microwave might be a good thing. Make something different for a change. Yeah.
Work on the novel for half an hour a day
Again, needs to be done. I've been doing this off an on, but I want to get a bit more traction. The goal is to have a first draft done by January.
Watch one of those movies I've been meaning to knock off the bucket list
I have this long list of movies I haven't seen. Movies like The Godfather Trilogy, Heat, In Bruges, Schindler's List (though I have read the book)... As we're stuck inside, maybe I could knock off one or two of these during September.
What else am I supposed to do.
Admittedly, I'm still not feeling it.
